Once
a man fell in love with a woman he had seen only once, after that they
did not meet again, but several years later he was asked: "Have you ever
fallen in love?" To which he replied: "Yes, only I do not know: in that I fell in love with her or her smell. " This
topic is relevant because, in the modern world, we are constantly
confronted with various smells and often in our head, some images,
images, situations and even people come up. And this, in one way or another, acts on our emotional state. The
smell is the molecules of the aromatic substance perceived by the
receptors of our sense of smell, and sent to the brain, which gives the
resolution - "it's such a nice (delicious, tasty, dangerous, etc.)
smell." In modern society, certain stereotypes about odors are adopted. They
are divided into: pleasant and unpleasant, harsh and soft, etc. At the
same time, the opinion of different cultures regarding the same smell
may be different.
Some smells have in our minds so strong emotional connections that they can sharply influence our body - cause nausea, vomiting, and even loss of consciousness. Other, pleasant smells, improve our mood, well-being, add energy to us. We feel all these smells with the help of our sense of smell. Seduction is one of five senses given to us, and it plays an important role in our life. According to the widespread scientific hypothesis, it inherited from primitive people, when, like animals, it was necessary for survival - warned of danger, helped to find prey and edible plants, gave information about the surrounding area. We found out the role of smells and smell in human life, now let's talk directly about aromatherapy. From the point of view of modern classical medicine, the principles of the effect of essential oils on the human body are still a mystery. Particularly improbable is the assertion that one oil has different healing properties simultaneously - for example, it can be both antispasmodic, and reproductive, and tonic. Nevertheless, the fact remains. At the same time, only the aromatic properties of this oil are really tangible and verifiable, while only the first results can be believed in the therapeutic properties. Modern medicine has always been skeptical about all the kinds of therapy that can not be (yet) rationally explained, and this limited the development of new knowledge, such as unconventional types of healing - yoga, meditation techniques, folk medicine. And always, as sprouts from under the snow, knowledge, based on the experience of peoples and civilizations filtered out over millennia, broke through and, as if grinning at classical science, easily coped with the problems over which the academicians fought for years.
